THE New Zealand Loan and Mercan-
tile Assurance Company of Melbourne,
in a circular of crop prospects in Aus
tralia, says: 1.-The recent hot weather,
though it has had forcing influence
on growing crops, has not been favor
able to filling out wheat heads, and in
some districts in the North the accounts
to hand of the condition of wheat on
the plains are far from favorable. On
irrigated lands the yields will be large,
but the average computed in the latter
is small. A difference of four bushels
to the acre on dry land to thirty-five
and forty on irrigated indicates what
can be done. Some indications of rust
have appeared. but they have been
mainly confined to poor soils or over
worked land. Grasshoppers are numer-
Gus, but crops are too much advanced,
as a rule, to suffer much from this in
fiction. From South Australia the ac-
counts promise six-bushel average.
The Queenland wheat crop is COM
plete failure, rust having destroyed all
hopes of yield, and the farmers are
DOW cutting their crops for hay"

The Central Liquor Dealers Associa-
ton of New York decided to refer the
question of strike against the pool of
the beer brewers to the members of the
local district organizations. If the To-
Gals back up their association they will
order all members to stop buying beer
from the seventy-seven breweries which
form the pool and to buy their beer
from the six brewers who do not be-
long to the pool. The saloon keepers
say that if they wish to change their
brewer they have to pay ten per cent.
more for beer, and that the brewers in
the pool agree to forfeit two dollars for
every barrel of beer they sell to another
brewers customer. They claim that
the pool is determined to force the
brewers who are not members to join
the pool.

The German deputies in the Bohe-
milan Diet have issued Il manifesto to
their constituents complaining that they
are treated with a systematic and un-
reasoning hostility by the Czech men,
bcrs of the Diet. The memorial de-
clares that the signers have resolved,
therefore, to remain away from the
sittings of the Diet until they are given
reliable assurance that their just claims
will be considered by their colleagues.
An absence continued for three weeks
will unseat members. The Czechs are
hurrying up the business before the
Diet in order to secure an adjournment
before the expiration of that time, in
order to avoid having the quarrel be-
tween them and the Germans pushed
to an extreme.
